OUGD503 Brief 1, Clockwork Orange - Typographic Book Covers

To help gain some information on creating purely iconic and typographic covers I looked into some book cover outcomes which had been done before, to see what and how the designers have approached designing their covers.

The layout and use of this letterpress type is eye catching and fundamentally interesting,
the variations in sizes and colours not only add texture but character, strongly linking to
the book 'No country for old men' The colour of the type connotes to aged and weathering.

The use of black and white typography on this cover is a clever adaptation of
creating light in dark places directly connecting the books title, the flow of the
text also suggest freedom of light.

This classic cover by penguin is typeset really well, by having the text flow into the illustration
it only adds to the image rather than distracting and deterring away. Another great use on this
cover is the placement of the penguin logo! in the 007 well played and well thought out and
overall a beautiful timeless cover.
